Does anyone know about the XBOX 360? I know it plays Region 2 & obviously region 0 - because that's what I use but I hear it can't be hacked. And the last thing I want to do is damage the XBOX.

Yeah it was ridiculously over long. Perhaps he was trying to break the world record for the longest film strangulation.

When I had a 360 It could'nt be hacked, and as far as I know thats still the case.
You can get it chipped but this will invalidate your warrenty, plus cut you off from all XBox live services.

There is an HD DVD disc player add on you can get now for around the 20 / 30 quid mark which will upscale your SD DVD's to HD quality but im not sure if its R0 or not.
As its sold in all 3 major territories it would be silly locking the HD DVD disc player considering the poor Japanese sales and strong US sales. A R0 would make better business scense.
But the way MS has handled its console division from day 1, good business scense clearly isnt the order of the day .

[Halloween_22]

Straightheads
Black Sheep
Murder Set Pieces (Directors Cut)
The Dead Next Door
My Dear Killer (Only need to get Frightened Woman now to get up to date)
Howard the Duck
Them

Quite enjoyed 'Straightheads', i'd recommend that if you haven't seen it. What did everyone else think of 'Black Sheep'? I thought it was going to suck but it was actually quite entertaining.

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

Straightheads was okay-especially for those who want to see Gillian Anderson getting 'em out.........
I ain't watched Black Sheep yet.....

Retribution Uncut Dutch DVD

Always wondered what the BBFC cuts to this film were. As far as I can see the main cut was to remove a scene showing a man having petrol poured over him and him being set alight as his attackers stand around laughing. Another cut was to the scene where Sally cuts her stomach open with a knife and a blow torch severing somebody's hand.

Just going by memory here as I no longer have the cut UK Video.

Not a bad film but certainly no classic.

I just watched 'Maniac' and I luved it! Brilliant! It's so different to most horror films too. Great ending aswell! 5/5!!!!!!!

Its a great film from the director of Texas Chainsaw Massacre about a deranged maniac.
